Disney Channel Star Joshua Rush Comes Out as Bisexual

After the groundbreaking Disney Channel series "Andi Mack" ended last month, its teen star Joshua Rush took to Twitter Tuesday to come out as bisexual.

Tweeting to his nearly 77,000 followers, the 17-year-old actor wrote:

"I'm bi. And now that I've said that, I have a few things to rant about. There are more important things to talk about than me liking a whole bunch of genders, but I do want to share a few things with you guys."

He then addressed LGBTQ fans who came out because of his "Andi Mack" character's own coming out. The show made headlines earlier this year when Rush's Cyrus Goodman became the first Disney Channel character to come out as gay.

He also encouraged fans to donate to GLAAD and the Trevor Project and to read GLAAD's page on being bisexual.

"Thank you to you for giving me the courage to know who I am and tell you this today. Happy 20biteen," he wrote.

Orlando Bloom recently spoke with Howard Stern to discuss a number of topics, according to the British newspaper The Sun, and opened up about 2016 paparazzi photos of the actor that showed him fully naked.
